Despite his apparent dislike, Seon Woo-jin surprisingly opened the door.

“I’ll kill you if you come unannounced again.”

He doesn’t dislike him… right?

Ban Ha-min, oblivious, happily entered Seon Woo-jin’s house.

Perhaps the strongest person in this world is Ban Ha-min?

If we ranked strength, Ban Ha-min would probably be the world’s top zero.

Seon Woo-jin glanced at me and asked, “Aren’t you coming in?”

“No, I just want my phone back.”

I had escaped during lunchtime, after grappling with Ban Ha-min who wanted to skip classes since morning.

With the time passed, I wasn’t curious why Seon Woo-jin skipped school. I just wanted my phone.

‘I better go eat lunch.’

Seon Woo-jin looked down at me for a moment and said indifferently, “Suit yourself.”

The door closed in front of me.

‘…’

He actually closed it.

As expected, the chic boy was cold not just to Ban Ha-min but to me too.

‘Should I wait outside for Ban Ha-min?’

Sigh. What a hassle.

I leaned against the stair railing and looked at my wristwatch.

There were 40 minutes until the 5th period.

Seon Woo-jin’s house was a 5-minute walk from school, so if I didn’t stay too long, I’d have enough time to return for lunch.

‘Wait, why did he try to catch a bus on my first day here?’

Suddenly curious.

‘Do Sung Ji-chan and Ban Ha-min live near there?’

I should ask later.

If they do, I might need to avoid that area.

As I was lost in thought.

Screech.

“Huh?”

Seon Woo-jin’s door opened again.

‘What, already kicked out?’

It wouldn’t be surprising if Ban Ha-min had been kicked out.

But surprisingly, it was Seon Woo-jin who emerged.

“Huh? What about Ban Ha-min?”

Seon Woo-jin frowned.

“Video games.”

Huh?

Seeing my confused expression, Seon Woo-jin explained with annoyance.

“That guy came to play games.”

So, here’s the situation:

Seon Woo-jin, like me, was living alone for some reason.

Taking advantage of his independence, he had set up a gaming room in his house. Therefore, the three top boys often went there to play games.
Especially frequenting the place was Ban Ha-min, who, true to his reputation as one of the three top school gangsters, didn’t care much about time.

He often skipped school to hang out.

Seon Woo-jin shook his head in exasperation.

“When Ban Ha-min is like that, he doesn’t listen to anyone. You just have to leave him alone until he gets bored and stops on his own.”

If Seon Woo-jin is saying this, what kind of person must Ban Ha-min be? Indeed, Ban Ha-min rightly deserves the unofficial title of ‘World Rank 0.’

‘But why did he bring me along?’

He was truly difficult to understand.

Meanwhile.

“Where are you going?”

At my question, Seon Woo-jin showed his right hand.

“To the hospital.”

Ah, so that’s why he skipped school?

It seemed he hadn’t been injured long ago, as he was still going for treatment.

Seon Woo-jin said, “You’re going to school, right? Let’s go.”

Since I was dying to eat, I nodded immediately.

The hospital was located past the school, in the central commercial area. We walked side by side on the same route.

It was when we reached the school gate.

“Oh, right. My phone!”

I had forgotten that I came out to get my phone from Ban Ha-min.

Seon Woo-jin looked at me with disbelief.

“You forgot about that?”

It seems the eagerness to eat made me forget…

Seon Woo-jin sighed.

“I’ll tell Ban Ha-min to bring it to you later. Just go in.”

I was too hungry to think anymore.

“Okay, got it.”

Seon Woo-jin would handle it.

To be honest, I didn’t want to go back to Seon Woo-jin’s house. I quickly gave up on my phone.

“Then, take care.”

I said goodbye, but Seon Woo-jin just walked away towards the hospital without looking back.

…That guy didn’t even say goodbye again.

That’s when it happened.

“Hey, you!”

As soon as I entered the school gate, a sharp voice reached my ears.

“Yeah, you! Over there!”

Could it be… me?

Confused, I found three girls appearing in front of me.

Thankfully, they weren’t Yu Hee-na and her friends.

‘Who are they?’

Their faces seemed somewhat familiar, but I couldn’t remember who they were. Their name tags indicated they were from the same grade…

Hesitantly, I asked, “Me…?”

“Yes!”

The sharp voice came back.

“Let’s talk for a moment.”

The three girls surrounded me, and I instinctively stepped back.

‘Oh.’

Then it dawned on me who these girls were.

“What’s your relationship with Ha-min?”

The ones who abruptly stopped me were members of the fan club for the three top school gangsters.
